Rep. Barney Frank is poised to become the first member of Congress in history to be in a same-sex marriage soon, and while his party, particularly in his home state of Massachusetts, had much to do with the rights of same-sex couples to marry, the chief executive of the Democrats (and the nation) is not invited. The reason, Rep. Frank told C-SPAN? It would ruin the party to have the Secret Service.

Rep. Frank had no ill words for the President, but made clear when asked on C-SPAN this weekend that he was not amenable to doing anything that would jeopardize the peace of his festivities. As he told the network:

If he and Michelle wanted to come, I would be delighted and honored to have him, but he will bring the Secret Service. I would be flattered to have the president do that, but it would ruin the party to have the Secret Service. Im not critical of them, but they can go take their layered protection of the president somewhere else. Not to my party.

Mr. Ready, a 42-year-old photographer, lives in Ogunquit, Maine. He has a small business doing custom awnings, carpentry, painting, welding and other general handyman services. The two men have been together since spring 2007.

Jim Ready reportedly is a surfing enthusiast(yeah, right!). The two previously met during a Maine fundraiser.

Ready dominated news in 2010 after a pair of ophthalmologists started to heckle Frank on a airline flight. Frank didnt comment. Frank told the Boston Globe at the time that Ready, however, had a few words for the passengers.

Frank told news They wanted to talk to me, but I apologized and said I like to read and watch on planes. He added They began to talk louder and thats when Jimmy (Ready) said, If youre trying to be bitchy, youre doing a good job.

Frank met Ready in 2005 at a political fundraiser in Maine, and they began a relationship in January 2007 after the death of Ready’s partner.

Speaking to the Washington Blade recently, Jim Ready recalled how the Congressman first caught his eye when he came out as gay in 1987, after his partner was arrested for prostitution.

71-year old Barney told the media this week that it’s the first time in his long life that he’s ever been in love. There’s an old Italian adage which says, “An old man in love is like a rose in winter.”

Bullcr@p Barney! You just know if the POTUS is there ALL of your perverted friends(and their furry little rectal spelunkers) must be vetted. In addition how do you explain that the pics show EVERYONE in a crepe chiffon LBD

Barney is afraid the Bamster would steal his limelight (and maybe his significant other’s heart). There's nothing like money, influence, and power that excites the gays. Image being able write a tell-all about serial trysts and romps with our Muslim CinC. It would be . . . breathtaking. I wounder how the NYT would spin it?
